发明名称 Stalk switch having a latch mechanism for the control lever
摘要 In a stalk switch, a control lever is rotatably supported on a housing, and a driving member is slidably held on the base end of the control lever via a first spring. A sectionally V-shaped cam surface is provided inside the housing, and an end of the driving member is pressed into contact with a cam surface, whereby the control lever can be rotated between the neutral position and the left and right operating positions. A stopper member is slidably supported on the housing, and the stopper member is urged by a second spring having an urging force smaller than that of the first spring so as to project from the valley of the cam surface. An attraction member is attached to a rotating member rotating operatively associated with the slide of the stopper member, and an electromagnet is attached to the housing so as to oppose the attraction member. When the control lever is rotated to the operating position, the attraction member is attracted by the electromagnet, whereby the stopper member is held in a state projected from the valley of the cam surface, and the driving member is latched in the operating position by the stopper member.
